This patchset is attempt to add CoW support for fsdax, and take XFS,
which has both reflink and fsdax feature, as an example.

Changes from V9:
 - Rebased on v5.15-rc3
 - Patch 3: Fix build error when CONFIG_FS_DAX_PMD not set
 - Patch 4: Add 'const' prefix for iomap_iter
 - Patch 7: Introduce xfs_dax_iomap_fault(),
              fix logic in xfs_dax_write_iomap_end()
 - Patch 8: Remove AIL lock check when nested locking two inodes

One of the key mechanism need to be implemented in fsdax is CoW.  Copy
the data from srcmap before we actually write data to the destance
iomap.  And we just copy range in which data won't be changed.

Another mechanism is range comparison.  In page cache case, readpage()
is used to load data on disk to page cache in order to be able to
compare data.  In fsdax case, readpage() does not work.  So, we need
another compare data with direct access support.

With the two mechanisms implemented in fsdax, we are able to make reflink
and fsdax work together in XFS.

(Rebased on v5.15-rc3)

  fsdax: Convert dax_iomap_zero to iter model
  fsdax: Add dax_iomap_cow_copy() for dax_iomap_zero
  fsdax: Dedup file range to use a compare function
  xfs: support CoW in fsdax mode
  xfs: Add dax dedupe support
